Remembered Today:

What uniform would he have worn

Can anyone help me on this.

I have just discovered my grandfather's ww1 mic, this shows he started service in the RAMC and went to France on 24th March 1915, but was then transfered to the Royal Navel Reserve IWD, Royal engineers probably because he was an ex merchant navy officer.

So would he have worn a Naval uniform or an Army RE uniform ?

thanks

Does his mic show an RE number? If so, he was tranferred and would have worn an army uniform with RE insignia. Perhaps you could post a copy of his mic.
